US singer Michael Jackson has been hit with a paternity suit by
a woman who claims she gave birth to twins in November who were
fathered by the pop star through in-vitro fertilisation.

According to the television news show The Insider,
Sholeh Bocchelli filed the suit Monday in Los Angeles, claiming
Jackson has possession of the children, has prevented Bocchelli
from seeing them and has cut off her $US3,000 ($A3,921.06) monthly
stipend.

"He (Jackson) initially was calling me every day to advise me
about their condition, but the calls stopped after New Year's,"
Bocchelli said in court papers, according to The
Insider.

"I need immediate access to my children."

The lawsuit, which was strongly denied by Jackson, came as he
faces charges of child molestation.

His ex-wife Debbie Rowe, who is auctioning off her wedding ring
from the star, has also said she will sue for custody of the two
children she bore with Jackson.
